But it's still strange for me. I didn't know that.
In Europe each MB model is limited to 250kmh/155mph -not only AMG.
Even 500 [an lower] models.

All MBs are limited to 130 mph (AMG 150 mph) in USA.
It's easy to delimit the car using Renntech ECU.

Using established tuner to do it is safer and easier.(and still very reasonable,considering what you have to pay for a new Benz)

Limp mode
2003 CL 600 goes into limp mode if I press the accelerator totally to the floor--It hits the speed limiter at 130 easily with the accelerator pressed partially to the floor--So, what is going on???and other than Renntech, who can tune my car for much cheaper AND bump my speed limiter to about 200mph?? I want to keep everything pretty much stock?

The Bently Continental GT does about 200 mph with similar power.
V12TT's run the risk of running into the red-line, though. They're all tragically under-geared.
33.9 mph/1000rpm x 5800 rpm = 196 mph

My bad, its difficult information to find out for sure.
Still undergeared, though, ought to be more like 40mph/k.

CL 600 '04, Porsche GT3 RS '08, CLS 500 '05, SL 500 '92
my 04 cl600 stock (without the speedlimiter and 320km/h speedometer) runs 320 km/h smooth - but not checked with GPS, just shown on the speedo.
after ECU / TCU from MKB (now 604hp / 1000NM torque) the car runs 338 km/h, checked with GPS from MKB (the M of MKB is the same M of AMG - Erhard Melcher, the other founder together with HWA).
these guys really know what you need for your 600 TT. they also had a 1000hp M275 in SL, S, CL. a fantastic ride. the fastest car after the CLK GTR supersport i ever had driven.
